I’m personally not a fan of Valentines Day as I don’t feel I need one day in the year to show love, but what I do love and appreciate is the simple things. I don’t like extravagant presents or gestures, I much prefer a simple daisy picked from a field and a hand written love note.. I think these simple gestures are slowly being lost in the commercialism. Anyway, This is my interpretation of simple love…..

Looking for a ‘check list’ or ‘running sheet’ for your next exhibition? Thanks to the power of google.com, and a spare hour on a Saturday afternoon of sporadic rain, I found a few PDF’s that should help you: EDITED 27.Dec.2009 : Two links removed as they are dead. I welcome people to add links to other PDF’s that help people to organise events, exhibitions and galleries for Artwork. Running, Promoting and Organsing your Event / ... Page 1 to 17 have great information on setting up and ensuring your t’s are crossed and i’s are dotted. Page 18 to 20 are the pages you want to print! Club/Association Management Program / ... This is a most extensive booklet (36 pages) outlining EVERYTHING about exhibition running. Whilst it is aimed at sport clubs, the information is easily transferable to anyone’s exhibition. Page 19 says … / ” It is essential that an event has an evaluation process that is more than simply monitoring the planning and implementation. Evaluation should be carried out through the life of the event as well as at the end. Information recorded from monitoring provides a record and can be kept as a historical record for events that are held regularly. Criteria for success, and methods for measuring those criteria, need to be set when the event is first planned. Measures depend on the important questions to be answered. Questions may have to do with attendances, quality of staff, revenue, public opinion and press coverage. Methods for obtaining the information needed to answer the questions might include statistics for attendance, questionnaires from participants and spectators, and financial records. “ Submission form for Major Events / Activities in Adelaide / ...

Red Bubble Tip #1: Adding a Portfolio Banner to Your Red Bubble Profile Page
by bchrisdesignsI am not sure if someone else has already posted a tutorial on this, so I thought I would have a go at it. I read “this (How to add a Po…
I am not sure if someone else has already posted a tutorial on this, so I thought I would have a go at it. I read this very insightful tutorial by admin Xavier Shay about posting a Portfolio into an email signature. I was toying around with the code, and discovered how to place the code on your Red Bubble profile page. I have noticed that some people have already figured out how to do this, so there are some who probably already know about this. I, however, did not know this until I toyed around with it and, so, I am sure that there others out there who might find this of value. I would first recommend that you read Xavier’s post and the comments that follow, as they were a very big help in learning how to do this. (1) The first step is to use the image location link that was provided in the forum tutorial: http://redbubble.com/people/username/recipe:banner;back_color:ffffff;orientation:horizontal;limit:4/username_banner.jpg (2) Next, paste this image location link somewhere in your “About Me” section between exclamation points, like this: !place the image location link here! (3) Now, notice the bold areas of the above link. You must insert your Red Bubble username (not your real name) where it says username (there are two spots in the link where you have to do this). So, my link would like like this: http://redbubble.com/people/bchrisdesigns/recipe:banner;back_color:ffffff;limit:4_;orientation:_horizontal;/bchrsidesigns_banner.jpg Can you tell where I have replaced “username” with “bchrisdesigns”? (4) Finally, if you take note of the italicized text in the image location link directly above, you will notice that the values of “back_color”, “orientation”, and “limit” are all italicized. These values are yours to control and manipulate to get the proper look and feel that you would like on your page. back_color: is the image’s background color, which you can change to any color using the standard HTML Color Code. Note, that you do not need to use the # (pound sign) that normally precedes HTML Color Code (i.e. ”#ffffff”) – you just need the code (i.e. “fffffff”). #ffffff is the color code for “white”. limit: is the number of thumbnails that will be seen in your banner. I have experimented with this in my blog and have discovered that the most you can set it to is “6”. On your Red Bubble profile page, the most you can really set it to is “4” for horizontal images and “6” for vertical images orientation: is the way your portfolio will be seen. This can be changed to either “horizontal” (from side-to-side) or “vertical” (up and down). And, that is it. Once you have decided how you want your image to look, just save your profile and presto! You’ve got a nifty banner on your page. BUT… If you would like your banner to be click-able, you need to add a link code to it, such as: ”! image location here ! ( link description here )” : hyperlink here You can copy and paste this example into your “About Me” section and then fill in the blanks with your information (make sure you delete any and all spaces). In the above example, replace the underlined text as follows: image location here: replace this text with the finalized image location link that we worked on in steps 1-4 above. link description here: replace this text with a description of what you would like people to see when they hover over your banner. (Mine says “View My Red Bubble Gallery”.) hyperlink here: replace this text with the actual hyperlink that you would like your image to link to (i.e. a specific Red Bubble section or your profile page; you can also link to your blog/website/etc.). Once you replace the text as indicated, simply save your edited profile and check out your radical awesomeness! Here is an example of mine (with hyperlink): I hope this helps everyone! Cheers! P.S. I am adding this to all of my groups in the hopes that everyone can use this tool to display their beautiful works of art (from Atmospheric Optics to Zoophoria). Much love!

100% OF ALL PROCEEDS FROM SALES OF MY ART OR DONATED ART GOES TO PHILADELPHIA MISSION, A REGISTERED CHARITY. WE WORK WITH EXTREME POOR SICK AND DISABLED IN ISOLATED AND RURAL AFRICAN VILLAGES. This is Violet aged 15 years old. She works in the fields from sunrise to sunset. Her Parents are dead. Violet works the small plot of land hoping to grow enough food for herself, her three younger brothers and sick Grandfather. she has a disability caused by Rickets, a disease that is common here. Her upper and lower limbs are bowed outwards. Yet Violet must force herself to work, or her dependants will starve. Please help us to help her and many more like her. This poem was beautifully written by a very talented poet and Writer called Adgray. God Bless you for wring this fitting piece . Does she dream of dancing and movies and fun / this girl with the faraway eyes / Has she the wish to kiss Brad Pit / Did she cry when Heath Ledger died? / What does she wish for when Christmas comes? / an ipod or mobile phone? / Does she complain there’s no chocolate again / in the fridge when she gets home. We complain we don’t have enough to survive / Money to cover our bills / and purchase the service and goods we desire / AND the luxury home in the hills / But where does it say life must be this way / That we have and she has not / That our world be of greed luxury and games / and hers of pain and hard lot. I look in the depths of these faraway eyes / and I think of my own teenage life / How I struggled with that I was expected to do / and rebelliously got into strife / I look at my own daughter of fifteen years / And know how I fiercely protect her / I support all her learnings and all her dreams / and use all my wisdom to guide her. But they are similar these girls far apart / for my daughter also cares for her home / She looks out for her younger siblings as well / and is rarely allowed to roam. And I wonder if having is really a curse / for to have not enough creates stress / equal to that of not enough food / but granted the consequence is less I shall show all my children these faraway eyes / for this girl is also one of their peers / their ages are similar their wants must compare / how I long to abate all her tears / I cannot succeed in my western world life / I struggle myself to survive / But oh how I wish I could lavish life’s gifts / On those beckoning faraway eyes.

Please visit Charity website: http://www.philadelphia33.org/ 100% of all money raised from sale ofall my art goes toward the extreme poor in isolated villages in Africa. I will never forget taking this photograph, as I was standing waiting for the ferry to come. Anyone who has been to rural Africa will know that things runs on African time. That’s why I call them Last minute.com. After three hours, these two guys came to me and said the ferry Had broke down on the other side, and that they would take me accross. So I got in, with all my camera equipment and a very wet Interpreter, who fell into the water. / One the way accross I suddenly realised that the large boat coming straight towards us was the Ferry. It was so funny. The fishermen refused to take any payment, as they said it would bring good fortune to the, as they had a white man in their boat. they both recieved Jesus as Lord and Saviour. It was really a blessed boat trip. visit: / http://www.philadelphia33.org/

What the hell is going on people dying every minute! / I sit an try to understand what the hell is wrong! / When grown men continue fighting for too many years! / An no one seems to want to say enough of this madness! / So I sit and look an shake my head and ask my friends what do they think? / An we all seem to come up with the same answer… that this shit is sick! / I look at all the tiny ones that live where I do. / An then I really want to cry when I think of all the little one that have died, an will never know the world an learn to play baseball. / Or sit out in the front yard with a friend and eat ice cream as their little sister learns to ride a bike. / This really pisses me off that some men don’t care enough to say ok this is enough! / So this is my poem. “Shake Someone” / I really want to run an say what the hells is wrong! / When people kill one another in the name of god. / When bombs are dropped on one another for so many years. / I want to shake someone and say what the hell is wrong? / Who is the person in control thats making these decisions. / I’d like to shake you until your head fell off and someone smarter took over! / Who is the one that said we need to fight and kill one another? / For what their silly ego. / Why can’t they simply say ok this is enough of this ! / I’d like to find you an shake you until your head fell off an someone smarter took over! / Its time to make peace and stop all this killing! / Can I shake that into your stupid head? / This hate has gone on for so long its part of their creation. / Hate and more hate seems the way this can’t be all there is. / When will they say look at me I am fighting like my father. / An his dad did the same thing too. / And his dad did it too! / Look at us the human race full of hate an greed. / An in the end who suffers more than our little ones! / We teach them all our virtue’s that some mens lives don’t mean a thing. / An soon they learn to do the same and drop a couple bombs. / Is that the answer ask a child… / Even they know that its wrong. As of today 555 dead and 2,750 wounded!

Thank you to all of you who have donated and prayed for little Grace. She is now in good health and has made a great recovery. Praise God, I am so happy right now. Grace and other children who suffer so much Inspires me to work 12-14 hours per day sharing their plight with others and fund-raising.. I have not had the good fortune of ever having a salary for what I do. but God rewards me in many other ways. To see a child tat would have died now live and smile is wonderful. To empower the poor with more than just hope is what I live and work for. In Tunga/Zuga village, a remote village in Kebbe state Nigeria, there are so many children who are without ANY source of help. The village has no source of clean water, since their well collapsed in 2006. Intestinal worm infections, river Blindness, Chronic Diarrhoea, Malnutrition and other preventable diseases are killing and disabling many. We are making a difference and with your Prayers, Donations and support we can not only save their lives, refurbish the old school adn give them education. If it had not been for your prayers and donations for Grace, she would certainly have died. I am deeply thankful to you all. We can make a difference. / Please continue to donate and support these precious people and this mission. You are part of Gods end time plan.

This is straight out the camera! Taken with a Fujifilm S5800 on ‘beach’ setting My Mum and I went for a walk on the beach in Victor Harbor and we were writing words on the sand and I was taking pictures of them. When I looked around, I saw this perfect opportunity for a mind blowing photo. If you look very carefully you will be able to see the word ‘beach’ written in the sand!

Erosion
by JenniferBPebbles / left to shimmer / on the sea-swept shore / leave me yearning / for so much more / as the salt of my tears / flow back into the ocean ...
Mmmm… I feel a bit weird publishing this because it’s all soppy and ooey gooey LOL, weird… I can publish a poem about sucking and fucking in a heartbeat, but anything even remotely romantic makes me feel uncomfortable. Ah well… I can always hide it again. :-)

The bus pulled away from the curb, jabbed into traffic and was gone in a cloud of gray smoke. I turned to cross the street and glanced at an advertisement for a late night comedy show on the plastic bus stop enclosure. The man’s face was revealed in the glare of passing cars, neon lights and the sunlight. It stared out or rather away, in that it was a mirrored image. He stood behind the bus stop next to a grocery cart that overflowed with brown, black and gray items that were undistinguisable. I didn’t really want to look that closely. I was sure it would smell bad. Yet his face had the stoic, proud and self-righteous distain of a General or nobleman who commandeered an army of slaves. I tried not to catch his eye. But suddenly he peered past the reflection, past the trash, past the smoke, past the overgrown ivy that plastered itself onto a crumbling rock wall, past the frozen stares of Holiday tourists, past the school children looking for trouble and sex and music and free food, past the mature shopping women who took heavy steps in tall, thick boots, past the tree trunk with the heart shape carved into its trunk and he looked directly into his eyes. And they were mine. Then he looked away. And so did I.

the skin of my teeth
by Ushna Sardar*_a fly in the ointment / heavenly bodies flew down to the earth / praise to the skies / time makes my skin crawl / soul laid waste by sin…
Add Ushna Sardar to your watchlist A quick featured by feminine intent – 29/06/09 Dante Alighieri is beyond doubt the greatest of Italian poets, and, many readers think, one of the greatest poets that Western civilization has produced. W. B. Yeats called him “the chief imagination of Christendom.” T. S. Eliot said: “Dante and Shakespeare divide the modern world between them. There is no third.” that writing dedicated to Dante Alighieri!

Walking quietly, he crept along the hidden harbor lights and blew them out. One by one. He slid between wood and water and felt for dry land. His fingers slipped through sand that trickled across his chest, down his pant legs and onto the boardwalk. He looked up and saw, through beams of fog, through wedges of flashing light, through fluttering wings of either angels or doves or pigeons, saw through countless pillows of resentment that had curdled into anger, saw through pangs of love lost and love found and love forgotten and love unappreciated and love lust love lust love lust, saw through the eyelids of the being he was born as that he had not remembered until this second, and saw saw saw the boat come in. It was a sad little ship. Yet it was just right for him. Perfect. And he was glad he had waited. Now he could sail. “Boat Has Landed” is acrylic and gesso on heavy paper 15”x20”

It was just a few days ago that I read this Baggage writing by fellow artist butchart. / Coming from the movies arena, I found a lot of amazing images in this poem that immediately jumped to my eyes_ and to my mind. / I don´t think it´s possible to recreate all the universe(s) reflected in this writing in just a single image. / So it´s just a vision, a single vision of one of the most visceral and unmasked poems I´ve read in the past days. / Thanks, butchart, for allowing me this intrusion into your worlds. Baggage / Author: butchart it was never just / you and me / adrift / all those ghosts / lashed to the bedposts / drowning in empathy / the chrysalis was shattered / before it could take wing / all those pretty pieces / scattered / in the haze / flesh in the silk of a spider / strung in sepia coloured days / living on tea and nightmares / toxicity was king / dancing the grand illusion / of what tomorrow would bring / camelot has ended / in the middle of it’s song / nothing was right / nobody was wrong / we are what we carry / once embraced hard to lose / bridges burned / lessons learned / take care in what you choose
